Description:
Beech was a popular timber of choice for utility office chairs, owing to the natural strength of grain in functional furniture. The English desk chair features a comfortable curved bar back, supported by an elegant vertical fan back, with bentwood supports. The small desk chair seat has been newly upholstered, to a professional standard, in top quality full grain green leather, which is finished with hand-tacked brass studs to the perimeter. The office chair frame has been tightened, cleaned and French polished by hand, to a professional standard, in our workshop. The chair sits on four splayed sturdy beech legs. The small desk chair incorporates a revolving mechanism which rotates 360 degrees. The seat height can be adjusted by turning a shaped metal large nut on the underside of the chair and rotating the chair at the same time. This office chair was not designed to recline (it only revolves). The chair mechanism has been cleaned, restored and serviced and is in excellent working order. The desk chair frame is sturdy and the item is extremely comfortable to sit on, as it features a lovely padded seat.
